Property Description for 161 West 16th Street, 9-C

An Exceptional Junior 1-Bedroom in the Iconic Barney's Building in Prime Chelsea.

Designed by esteemed architects Farrar & Watmough in 1930, 161 West 16th Street is one of the most sought-after full-service buildings in Chelsea. Facing North, Residence 9C has been meticulously renovated to highlight the home's ornate Art-Deco architecture. The formal entry foyer is outfitted with an exposed iron door, a spacious coat closet and dressing room, and a newly renovated bathroom. Nestled behind the foyer, the bathroom features a glass stall shower, white subway tile with mosaic accents, recessed lighting, a vanity and a medicine cabinet for storage.

Through the formal corridor, the residence expands into a bright and spacious living room with an adjacent sizable bedroom. The bedroom accommodates a queen-sized bed with ample space for additional furniture, and looks directly into the home’s North facing windows. Outfitted with newly finished hardwood floors, the living room boasts a large walk-in closet, views of the Empire State Building, beautiful beamed ceilings and a distinguished amount of space for entertaining.

Partially opened onto the living room, the thoughtfully designed windowed-kitchen is outfitted with stainless steel appliances, a marble countertop and back splash as well as Oak wood cabinets.

161 West 16th Street is an exceptionally run and elegantly designed full-service co-op with a gorgeously furnished roof-deck that boasts 360-degree views of Manhattan as well as the Hudson River. The building also offers its residents a well-maintained laundry room, a bike room, a full-time doorman and a superintendent. Located just off of 7th Avenue, the Art-Deco building is adjacent to Barney's, located near Cafeteria, Sabon, William Sonoma and Furniture Row, and is within two minutes of the 1,2,3,A,C,E,F,M trains.

Chelsea | Manhattan

Quick Profile

The row houses portray the world-class architecture of Greek Revival, Italianate and Georgian styles. The population is both ethnically and socially diverse, which is reflected in the restaurants and retail businesses in the neighborhood. 

Western Chelsea is the center of the NYC art world, where you will find more than 200 art galleries housed in rehabbed factories and warehouses, as well as in newly-constructed buildings.

While people of many different cultures call Chelsea home, it has been a mecca over the years for people in the LGBTQ community. One census reported that as many as 22% of its residents were gay couples. Eighth Avenue is a trendy area for LGBTQ-oriented dining and shopping. Although it no longer draws the LGBTQ population that it once did, Chelsea still has many popular alternative bars.  

Chelsea is primarily residential, consisting of a mixture of diverse complexes, low-rise apartment blocks, tenements, townhouses, renovated row houses, and luxury high-rises. 

Chelsea is an interesting and sought-after place to live, with unique clothing boutiques, restaurants, and delis representing cultures from around the world. In addition to its quirky establishments, Chelsea has fine dining restaurants and a vibrant, hip nightlife, which adds to its allure.

Chelsea is well-served by public transportation. At least six city bus routes traverse Chelsea. There are three NYC subway routes with stops on Seventh Avenue, three on Eighth Avenue, and two more on Sixth Avenue. The 34th Street - Hudson Yards Station opened in 2015 with its main entrance in Chelsea.
